Do they split the Whopper & Fries? If not that's a awful lot of calories, fat and sodium for one meal when there's still 2 more to go in a day. That's 1060 in calories, 55 grams of fat and 1535 mg of sodium in one sitting. Heck even splitting them equally it's a mess of a meal to have every single day.

From BK's website - nutrition data for a whopper:

Calories 650
Protein 22g
Carbohydrates 50g
Sugar 12g
Fat 37g
Saturated Fat 11g
Trans Fat 1.5g
Cholesterol 60mg
Sodium 910mg

For a medium fries:

Calories 410
Protein 4g
Carbohydrates 58g
Sugar 0g
Fat 18g
Saturated Fat 3g
Trans Fat 0g
Cholesterol 0mg
Sodium 570mg

Burger King should get them a gift certificate for a good cardiologist!

That list should include 40 mg of Lipitor.

for breakfast for going on three years now.

I don't know if I could do BK daily though I can taste that gas they grill their burgers with

BK makes me burp that fake grill taste for hours afterward.

Just like another poster said earlier, they used to be good, but no more!

I got stuck in Belize for six months once. Had to eat crayfish every day...180 days...crayfish for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Pure hell.
I dreamed of Burger King. Cheeseburger in paradise.

Can you enjoy them now or did that burn you forever out?

I agree. Burger King is OK, but not my favorite. Now if it was Whata-Burger I could see it.

There was a taco truck that set up a couple of blocks from the bus garage I drove out of last summer. I didn't eat there every day, but if I had to, I could have - for a while. As it was, I was there about three days a week. But I would mix up my order: two carnitas and one al pastor, or two al pastor, one carnitas, or sometimes four carnitas. Sometimes I would have a cabeza or buche, but never sesos. I was tempted, but not with BSE around.

I mixed up the salsas, too. The pale green hot one, or the pale pink/orange, really, really hot one.

You would fit right in with this group, if you aren't one already.

A bunch of Whataburger worshippers.

Freddy's is pretty good, but if I have to choose...Whataburger, definitely Whataburger!

Yes, that's where I grew up eating Whataburgers...grew up & out I should say. When I moved to OKC I was happy to see a Whataburger right around the corner from the house. That was about fourteen years ago this April. I wonder if anyone remembers that special thay had for a pretty good while back then? Buy one get one free? I thought I was going to kill myself with a burger overdose!

You've got Two Guys, don't you? They have one here now. I hear their pretty good, but i haven't tried them. Whataburger definitely works for me;why take chances?

ever since i saw super size me (mcdonalds only for 30 days) i won't eat fast food more then once a month.

How unhealthy he got in just a month was horrific.

Read today where a Wyoming couple have been having lunch every day at the same BK for the last 25 Years ! They order a Whopper,a medium order of fries and two side salads with ranch dressing. I can understand being stuck in a rut,but 25 years sounds a little excessive to me.

Better than eating at McDs where your lucky IF you get Beef in the ""meat.""

I apologize;I lost count. But are their burgers any good?

BigBill · Feb 3, 2014

We're creatures of habit. When I like a certain food that's all I stick with when I go there. But I do switch to other food places too.

I once believed I could live the rest of my life on Qdoba beef burritos with black beans. After 2 weeks I couldn't bear the thought of another burrito.
